Application Analysis of Energy Storage Technology on the Generation Side

Achieving the integration of clean and efficient renewable energy into the grid can help get the goals of "2030 carbon peak" and "2060 carbon neutral", but the polymorphic uncertainty of renewable energy will bring influences to the grid. Utilizing the two-way energy flow properties of energy storage can provide effective voltage support and energy supply for the grid. Improving the security and flexibility of the grid. To this end, this article first summarized the current status and development scale of energy storage. Secondly classified and described the application of multiple types of energy storage. Then discussed the application mechanism of energy storage on the generation side, from suppressing renewable energy fluctuations to auxiliary frequency modulation and peaking, peak- cutting and valley-filling. Finally, suggestions and conclusions are made for the technical of energy storage on the generation side.
